Overview
Geographical structure: Eastern Alps > Julian Alps > Vis and Montaz group.Monte Nabois Grande / Veliki Nabojs is the northern neighbour of Vis/Iof Fuart (2666m). Veliki Nabojs is the huge mountain above the valley Val Saisera (Zajzera). From the north side (above the valley Zajzera) is Veliki Nabojs hardly approachable because of wild faces and you can be easily lost. From the north side, from the distance Veliki Nabojs looks like the same mountain of 350 meters higher Vis, but if we look it from the west side is like a beautiful and bold pyramide on the left side of Vis. To the south side is with the notch Nabojsova skrbina (Sella nabojs) (1970m) connected with Vis. This notch is from the east side easily approachble. On the west side of the notch, down to the valley Spranja (Spragna) there is a huge ravine. On the north side just above the valley Zajzera it has a “little brother” Monte Nabois piccolo (1691m).
The normal approach on Veliki Nabojs goes from the east side to the notcch Nabojsova skrbina and then over the south slopes and the east ridge to the top. The route is marked and not very hard.
The first ascend was made by dr. Julius Kugy in the year 1884.

There are no limitations. |
When To Climb
Summer and autumn are the best seasons. In Julian Alps in summer a stable weather usually starts somewhere in July and months from August to October are the best.The normal route can be also done with the skies but this is very hard descent, only for good skiers. In Winter we muse be also careful on avalanches.

East ridge approachMarijana C. & Marko K. are writing (july 30th, 2006) that the lower part of the East ridge (from pellerini hut) is partially marked but that there are many paths, so the route is hard to find. They followed it till the altitude od 2050m. The ledge around the whole N face of Nabojs is a climbing route, which starts on the East ridge on some 2050m and finishes just below the Nabojs Notch or on the West ridge, some 1950m. Two places UIAA II-III, many other places I-II. Very exposed, on the hardest places bad, crumbly rock. With belaying on key points at least 4-5 hours.
